Cadillac CT5 Tire Rotation Pattern and Interval

Steps from the 2026 Cadillac CT5 owner's manual (Same-size tires on all four wheels use one pattern; different front and rear sizes use another and must not be rotated front to rear.).

Rotate the tires at the interval listed in the maintenance schedule.
Inspect the brake pads for signs of wear while the wheels are off.
Use the rotation pattern shown for your tires: the different-size pattern if front and rear sizes differ, otherwise the same-size pattern.
Adjust front and rear tire pressures to the Tire and Loading Information label after rotating.
Reset the Tire Pressure Monitor System.
Check that all wheel nuts are properly tightened to the specified wheel nut torque.

The first rotation is the most important.
Rotate as soon as possible if unusual wear is noticed, and check the wheel alignment if it continues.
After a rotation, lightly coat the inner diameter of the wheel hub opening with wheel bearing grease.
